Since my last post, I decided to make an effort to finish the shell stitch wrap around cardigan, and here it is……

I’m quite pleased with it, and it should get a lot a wear. It was actually quite pleasant to work on, and the nice thing about this pattern was that there was so little finishing – no seams, just a few ends to weave, and no buttons to sew on (for some reason I really hate sewing on buttons!). I’ve also made some progress on the mohair cowl neck sweater (no photo though) and have started test crocheting a sweater for alce.
Not much knitting done this week, but I have made a tiny bit more progress on the trekking socks. When they are finished, I will start the Flared Lace Smoke Ring form heartstrings Fiberarts in the knitwitches fingering weight cashmere I bought at this year’s knitting and stitching show.
